Hi, Kay ! I've done a little research on this project - enough so to invest in it. Here is the most rudimentary way to understand HOW they are able to provide such amazing returns on your investment. When you pay for ONE OHM, there is a Retail price (the price you see on CoinMarketCap for example, let's say it's $700/OHM token. It implies that you are willing to pay$ 700 plus fees to get into this project. Once you did that, the project is able to utilize your $700 to invest in treasury notes as well as other low risk investment vehicles. On OLYMPUS' homepage you will find the numbers pertinent to your investment decision. Once you paid in the hypothetical$ 700, there is what's referred to as "Risk Free Value of Treasury Assets", that's what your $700 is backed by or currently$ 133.53 (Backing per OHM) - That infers that the difference between what you paid $700/one OHM and that$ 133 will be paid out to staking token holders over time. Now, OHM also has additional investors in the project, those who bond. So, you see, there is a continual flow of money going into the project and it's based on the concept that "Greed" will have most investors stay in the project - collecting staking rewards - remember, these staking rewards are paid on in OHM, not dollars, so you increase the number of OHM you own every 8 hour EPOCH (time period), however, the price of that OHM can and has changed dramatically over days/weeks/months. IF invested as intended, you will have so many OHM tokens after a number of years, even the OHM price were to drop to $50, you still would have made your initial investment many times over again - in theory. Only time will let us see whether we can get there - the great news is, if you are nervous about your principal, take it out - after about 5-6 months (worst case scenario) you should have doubled your money. GOOD Luck ! I hope that helped and remember, don't invest more than you willing to afford to lose. 🙂
